Rating: 3.0/5
This Chianti Superiore from Italy showcases a deep ruby hue. The nose is enticing with complex aromas of dark fruit and subtle spice, its medium plus intensity a true reflection of its Italian heritage. On the palate, the wine offers a medium-weight body and balanced acidity, with medium tannins that soften to reveal a velvety texture. Red and black fruit flavours dominate, with a hint of herbal notes on the finish, lasting for a medium duration.
